Article Synopsis
- Lung masses can be benign or malignant, and Multi-detector CT (MDCT) plays a critical role in helping to differentiate between these types, although histopathological confirmation through biopsy is often necessary for a definitive diagnosis.
- The study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of MDCT in distinguishing benign from malignant lung masses and to correlate imaging findings with results from CT-guided biopsies.
- Conducted over 17 months with 52 patients, the study used descriptive statistics to analyze the effectiveness of CT-guided biopsies and the diagnostic performance of MDCT in identifying thoracic lesions.
Triphenyl phosphate (TPP) and polystyrene nanoplastics (PSNPs) are prevalent freshwater contaminants obtained mainly from food packaging, textiles and electronics. Algal extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), a part of natural organic matter, may influence these pollutants' behaviour and toxicity. The presence of EPS can enhance the aggregation of TPP-PSNP mixtures, and reduce the bioavailability, and thus the toxicity potential.
